Merional 75 IU (HMG)

Merional 75 IU is a gonadotropin preparation containing human menopausal gonadotropin (HMG), also known as menotropins. It provides follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) activity to stimulate the reproductive system.

In women, HMG may be used during assisted reproductive treatment to stimulate the development of ovarian follicles. In appropriately selected men, gonadotropin therapy may be used to stimulate testicular function and support sperm production.

Treatment requires specialist supervision because dosing is individualized and ovarian or hormonal responses may need monitoring.
